N0t\',’K:ttytli:l, I know it all.

That long dispute I've lieard;

I‘.Ii'sieri’d ’neaili the old peach tree,
,_‘-V. And licartl it, every word.

5‘~f§*Ye sat, a noisy little group, __
Arid told it all with Zt‘Sl—- ,
Some “ Katyrlid n‘t" stotitly cried, -
And “ Katydid,” the rest.

The little prtitles! I heard them tell
The story o’i:r and 0 er ;

And they, no_iloubr, have done the same
A rizillion times l)(‘Il)I't3I

How_Kaiy went down the lane
\Viili one I must iioi name; , '

And how he kissed her cheeks and lips-
NOW. pray. was Kate to blame?

I'm sure that I have alwavs tlioiiglir
A kiss a harmless thing;

S0’pl‘()ll][)l upon a iiiairleii’s cheek
Plie ready blush to bring.

Now, is it thought so very bad
\Vliere Katy’s home was bid?

And don’t they walk with lovers there,
Alone, as Katy did 1

He kiss'd her cheek, and Katv smil’d;
Her hluslies went and came;

He kiss’d her lips, and Katy kiss‘d_
Now. pray, was Kate to blame?

Brit up theresprang a naughty elf,
A jealous little sprite. _

\Vlio came to watch prior Katy there,
Beneath the starry night.

Away he ran with wicked speed,
And. “Katyrlid._" he cried—-
And ":KZlly(ll(l I]’I,” I_()udIy'ca]1?r]

Thelover by his side.

Away they went, a train piirsuei.l,
Unknowing what it meant.

Arid “ Katydid ri’t,”—" Katydid,”
‘Upon the air they sent.

And.thos,.for ages, they Iia've’l.-eegii
Disputing all the iirne. ‘

About that poor kiss poor Katy gave‘-’—
Sure, was it such a crime?

‘ Let me have men about me that are fat.’-'-
Julius Caesar. '

_ mall the ilrrrru s ‘v which ‘, Ill N‘.-t._t....‘.‘..
attempted to Llistur t e quiet _0 this lnlessed
world, I think there i"s‘hori'e equal to the dis-
position which half the community have for
tormenting fat people. I can speak feeling-
ly on this point, for I am a fat -man myself.
Your lean fellows live in quiet, nobody
thinks of poking fun at them, or jostling
them in the street, or squeezing them in a
crowd, or a stage coach, or box at the thea-
tre. They slip through the common rubs
and crosses of life as easily as a snake
through the bushes. A SIi1l'V€IlIlgDlli'lS an
immunity against all tribulations; bitt a fat
mati—-there is no mercy for him; he is a
butt for all ‘jokes ‘that are currcntf;, there is
no ‘sharp ‘shooting but hits him, He is too
prominent a mark to escape. The lea‘n"0fies
envy his goodly size, and i'_evenge_tlieinsclves
the only way theyycan, ‘by ridiculing what

yond their reach, as the fox turned up his

right honorable noseat-certain grapes.

Who would not be fat iflie_could'.l I don’t

see any harm in being far. It is sheer

malice and envy that would set the world

against fat people, who generally speaking,

are the most -useful and good huinored of the

community; fruges consumers na.t2',_ they

keep theiinarkefs up and make trade flourish.

If to be ‘fat is to he hated says Falstaff: then

lean folks, they make me think of afamine ;

and short commons are an abornination unto
men of any condition. But ‘let me come to
the point, and ‘the point ofthe matter is, that
I make it a point never to refuse an invit-
tion to dinner. Now I re‘c_eived,an invitation
to one last week, the most, .magr_i‘ficent diinrier
that has been eaten in this city 'th‘es'e.fi'fty
years. The very mention of the dishes
made my mouth water. Alderman Gobble
who gave the dinner, knows how to create
an appetite in his guests, by aspecification of
his tit bits. I need not-"stop now to recapitu-
late the niceties which the worthy alderman

imagination for a week in anticipation ’o'fth'e
feast. Suffice it to say, it was a meal fit for
a gourrnarid, a'nd,I had raised an appetite fit
to do justice to it. Oh ye demons of disap-
pointment! hotv could ye serve me such a
trick as to balk me oftliat dinner! .

For as my ill ‘luck would have it, I hap-
pen to live just now about ten miles from
Boston. _‘There is no difficulty, one would
think, in jumping into the stage and posting

of ordinary folks, but see what plagues beset

was the first to get into the stage, when a
disagreement arose about the space which I
occupied in the vehicle. The driver assert-
ed that I had taken but one seat, and all the
others in the coach were engaged before me.
Now as he undertook to prove by regular
admeasurement, that my immense 1'9“mdl!_Y
of corporation. as he was pleased to call it,
occupied at least space enough for four, he
maintained that all the others should seat
themselves first, and then I might get in if 1
could.

‘Not in the day time, my lad,’ said I, as
[seated myself snugly on the back scat——

. “_D,.ea.r‘Ne]'7/ie'u_t—_-I havefiioi written you
since my last before now, because we liave
moved ‘from’-our former place of livina,
and I did hot know where a letter would
find you; but I now \virh.ple:isi'ire take mi‘

-pen to inform yo.u'=of tlie inelancholy news

I-I3ll\/IKI AL‘!

of-the_very%sp£(lre;ii__death_'of:your only living‘
the en rly part of last week, afte'i°'ai litiig—e'r'iri§'
illness of twelve months.
The poortnan was in viol_egit«gqpvr1l§ion‘s
the whole time of his sickness, lying per-
fectly _‘spe"e'chless and quiet, all theiwhile
talking incoherently, and calling for water.
I had no opportunity of informing you of
his 'cleiitlt_soo_n‘er, except ‘I had wrote you
by the lastpost, which went ‘off two days be-
fore hc plied, and then you would have had
postageflo pay. _I am at a ‘loss to t_ell._ what.
is death was occasioned by, but ‘I ‘fear ‘it
was bi"otig'ht'on by his last sickness, for he
was never well ten days together during the
wliole time of his ‘confinement. I believe
hissicknjess wasoccasioned by his eating too
much rabbit, stufled with peas and "gravy, or
peas and gravy stuffed with ‘rabbit'—-‘I can’:
tell which; but be that as it may, assoon as
he breathed his 5last, the doctors gave up all
"hopes_._of‘l_1.is ‘recovery. , V ,, _ '
iiieed not tell you "anything about his
age, for you will know that in December
neixtilie would have been ’ttvénty-fivesyears
'oi‘ld,'la'cki'ng ten months, and had ‘lie llivell
’tilItben‘, he would have been ijust'si’x’r‘no'iith‘s
dead. ._ . _ .
His property nowdeivolves to ‘his 'next or
kin, who all died some time ago, so that I
expect it will be divided _between us; and
you lt_I1t_)t.i_!Jl1"f3-pi‘o‘pe=i‘ty,7lS very valuable, for
he had a fi_ii_e,esta'fe which was sold to pay
his debts, .‘a'nd_7t"h_e,‘1‘e‘m‘aincle’r ‘he lost on i_t
horse race‘; but it was 'the’opi‘nion of every
one at the time‘, that he would have won the
race, if the _llO1'.S9_._Ile run against had not
been too fast 'fo'.1' liiin‘. - 
I 5ne‘ve'r‘sa"tv'a man, and the docfors all
said So, wf'h‘o_ ‘observed directions, and took
medicine better than ‘he did. ' He said he
\t'ot1ld'a's soon drink ‘gruel as wine‘, if it only
had the same taste, and would as ‘soon "take
jalap ‘as beefstealt, if it only had the same rc-
lisli. . , -_
But, ‘poor soul, he will never eat or drink
‘more; and now you have not a living ‘rela-
tion in the world except myself and your
two cousins. who were killed in the war. I
can’t dwell on this mournful subject, and
shall seal my letter with black sealing wax,
